Ah yes, Obamas war in Afghanistan is going spendldly. As his is outreach to the friendly muslim world, including that most famous "ally", Pakistan.

And all of this paid for with money borrowed from China...

You can always see how the US gifts of billions of dollars a year are being used when you see the modern buses used for transportation of the locals.

WilliB yes I'm sure all those decades before mr. obama was president wasn't exactly the same? Doesn't matter what prez is in office, its the same old thing different crew. Reagan, Bush sr, Clinton, Bush jr. now Obama, nothing new under the sun man, skip the political grandstanding bud.

Seriously, WilliB. Everything you say on these forums somehow comes back around to politics and your hatred of the left. Obama is basically a Republican, dude. Progressives hate that guy. If you look at his policies of the last two years or so, they almost all favor the center-right.

On topic (sort of), what about that 300 billion dollars that literally just disappeared in Iraq during Bush's time in office? There's corruption around every corner in Iraq and Afghanistan, and it's not just the locals. Military and construction contractors are literally just pocketing money by the suitcase full. It's not the president's fault things are so bad out there - it's the defense industry. The more they bog things down, the more money they make.
